accident. Maybe someone or something was in the road and he tried to =
avoid it, or maybe there was a mechanical failure.

If you are assuming it was his age then how about you set an age that =
everyone has to stop driving and see how far that goes

I know many people well into there 80s that are perfectly safe drivers.

Well, THAT was harsh.  You might want to forward that to his family just =
